Authenticate using your GHL Blogs API credentials and the Zapier App Connector. You will generate an API key or OAuth token in GHL and safely store it in the connector settings.
In the Zapier App Connector, enter the client id and client secret provided by the Blogs API integration, then test the connection to confirm access.

Obtain the API key or OAuth credentials from GHL and register them in the Zapier app
Authorize access and test the connection to ensure right scopes emails/builder.readonly etc
Create field mappings for title, content, slug, category, and author to fit your workflow
No coding is required. The Zapier App Connector provides a graphical interface to map fields and endpoints. You can automate tasks such as publishing new posts or updating existing ones without writing code. If you need custom logic, you can use Zapier paths and filters to fine tune the workflow. The connector securely stores credentials and handles token refresh so you can focus on content and automation, not security.
The available endpoints cover blog post creation, updates, slug checks, category and author retrieval, and posting scheduling. Use the provided actions to fetch, create, update, and organize content. Consult the endpoint list in this guide for exact paths and supported methods.
GHL uses tokens or OAuth to authorize access. In the Zapier App Connector you map scopes and verify access with a quick test. Your credentials are encrypted and rotated automatically where supported. Always use the least privilege scopes necessary for your workflow.
Yes. You can schedule posts to publish at a future time and propagate updates to connected channels. Use the scheduling feature in Zapier to set date times or trigger based on other events. This helps ensure consistent publishing across your blog and social destinations.
Slug conflicts occur when two posts share the same slug. The integration can check slug existence before creation and optionally update the slug or alert you to adjust content. You can also enforce unique slug patterns in your workflow. Keep slugs simple and descriptive to avoid duplicates.
API docs are provided in the Blogs API section of the GHL developer docs and the Zapier app docs. Look for endpoint references, authentication requirements, and example payloads. You can also request sample payloads and test events in your sandbox. If you need more examples, I can generate tailored payloads for common use cases.
If you need additional endpoints beyond the core set, contact support to request expansions or custom connectors. The integration framework supports adding endpoints for specific use cases and mapping them to your workflow. We can help design a scalable solution with your content strategy.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
